One issue I’ve had problems with is the M32 drive shaft seals, seem to keep going through these and keep getting a gearbox leak 🤷‍♂️ hoping gearbox rebuilt will clean it up and sort the issue

Thanks for this, thinking about getting 1 begin summer!

I have had my 15 plate clubsport for 7 years.Have all the extras on it including full leather interior.Been brilliant & well looked after.31500 on the clock.New timing belt last year,just in case & recently had new clutch,master cylinder & pipes. Sailed through all MOT's. So only issues have been clutch gone earlier than should have & I don't belt it off the line too many times,driver seat coming away as in your video so new clips reqd & a hesitant problem that appears at any time on acceleration,it's like no power for a second or 2 then full power. Is this the pot 4 problem & if so how much to fix before it's the whole engine? Great learning video on what to watch out for

Sounds good mate as for the hesitation it’s hard to say won’t be a p4 issue could be a coilpack or a sensor on its way out

Absolutely love all your videos I've learnt a lot watching your videos have you got like a personal page that I can contact you on to ask if any questions or concerns that I might have

Anyone else having ticking noises from the engine? Presumably from the valves, once it runs idle you can hear it pretty good.

hello Yoda. Can you help me out what is the difference between blue edition artic white and Nurburng ring edition?

@Yodaracing1

3 жыл бұрын

Hi mate the blue edition doesn’t really differ from a normal vxr the Arctic has a glass roof and a remus exhaust and the nurburgring comes with twin exhausts, more power , brembo brakes , bilstein suspension , drexler diff and different wheels hope this helps 👍🏻

It's because the injectors are running at a 95 percent drive cycle that's why the pistons get hot n melt

What is the torque setting on the rear hub
